GUI Composer what is syntax for binding a string to e.g. label

Hello,

Are you using GCv2 or v3?

Thanks

Hi ,

I am using V2 Dashboard.

FYI What I need to display is a /0 terminated string following standard C conventions.

Thanks!

Thanks. I will follow up with engineering and let you know when I receive feedback

I have no issues binding a string to a label. The text displays as it should.

Can you provide the following:

-code snippet of the string

-how the variable is binded to a label in GC

-how the string is displayed when running the GC dashboard

Thanks

Hi Ki!

Here you are....

C program in CCS:

Here is how I declared gloabl string in my CCS C program :

  char gTestString[20];   // global string

... I initialized string in progam:

  strcpy(gTestString, "GC-Test!");  // now correxct Content is in variable!

GC V2 Dashbaord:

This is label property:

and this shows up during runtime (each ASCII in hex is displayed):

See right Label.... 71,67,45,....

I also tried gTestString[] and gTestString[0] without same result.

Thanks, they are very helpful.

This is what i did:

Code:

Label property:

Dashboard:

It seems to be working fine for me.

Can you export the whole project and provide it to me? You can share via private E2E conversation if you wish.

Thanks

FYI, I modified the properties so that it uses the same font and color as your properties. That still worked:

Hi Ki!

That give me some hope ;-)

I will send you my project immediately per private message!

I will respond further in the private discussion
